Colic Babies...

Lately there's been a few of us that's got bubs with Colic. So frustrating I couldn't even imagine... Is there anything you can do to prevent your baby developing this? Or is it just a bit of a bad luck?

My daughter had it and it didn't go away after a few weeks like her dr said it would. She was miserable for months. It makes it very hard for you to get anything done because they need/want to be held all the time. I used to put her in her carseat, snap it in the stroller ans push it back and forth with my foot while I washed dishes or did a load of laundry. I sure hope these two girls don't have it but at least I'm better prepared this time around.

They don't know what causes colic, so it's hard to say what to do to prevent it. They say to keep a calm environment through your pregnancy and during the first few weeks of life. They also say that birth could impact it (a traumatic birth=colicky baby) but this is all just speculation. (they=articles I've read, I use it as a general term).

Mady, from the but of research I did, the main cause is the digestive tract being under developed. Causing them to be in pain, that's why sometimes pro biotics or and adjustment from a chiropractor will work because it helps their digestion issues. But unfortunately sometimes you just have to wait it out

I don't think traumatic birth and colic go hand and hand. I had the most horrible delivery, and no colic. It's just something that happens. I had no idea when stella was born she would have hypoglycemia straight out of the womb especially since I didn't have GD. Now she may have juvenile diabetes, it's not because of anything I did or didn't do. It will only make you a stronger momma in the end. You always have us to vent to also!

Dd had a very traumatic birth too, but I had the easiest, stress- free pregnancy so I don't know how reliable that is. Like I said, it's just a few studies that I read but were more of a first stage study before they get funds for a real study so who knows.

Okay cool I'm starting to understand it a little more... I didn't really think their was anything you could do to prevent it but thought id ask anyways. So unfortunate for the mums who do have babies with it, I really can't imagine how frustrating and stressing it would be.
